19 Peace Sign T-Shirts to Give a Chance

The past couple of weeks have been filled with some horrible and terrifying news stories. Yes, I know that’s the usual MO of the news, but it seems that these days there’s more fear of war, more hate mongering, and more people being straight up mean to each other. I know in my heart that there are more good people out there than there are bad, it’s just that the bad get more press. But in times like this, when it feels like darkness is winning, all I can do is do my best to continue to be loving and peaceful to all my fellow human beings.

Whenever I talk with friends about any of these terrible things, I remind them that we must remain calm, rational, and most of all peaceful. There was an old Eurythmics song called “Peace is Just a Word.” And where, I doubt we will ever find our entire world at peace, I do know there will be peace in all of these major situations at some point. Let’s just hope it’s before more terrible things happen.

But I stress, the most important peace you can have these days is inner peace. It will help you deal with not only the big troubles of the world, but also your own everyday struggles. Sorry, I don’t have a map to your personal inner peace, but seek it and you shall find. Maybe it’s through religion, yoga, meditation, art or maybe even cooking.

It does not matter if you succeed 100% in the quest, as long as you try. It’s the journey, not the destination.

To show you’re a person of peace on the inside, why not show it off on the outside. Tell the world you want wars to end and everybody to be nice to one another. I searched for some more unique peace shirts, mostly serious and thoughtful, but of course I couldn’t resist the one about bacon.

Hope this blog did not get too metaphysical for you. I just wanted to take a moment in these crazy times and breathe some peace and calm. Next time I’ll go back to being funny and talking about pop culture. Maybe we can find inner peace hrough escapism. But for now…
